Letters of Memories
[Intro]
(People talking)
Kid:
"Are we going up?"
[Verse 1]
What an empty feeling staring up at the ceiling
Thinking of all the crazy things that can happen in a year
Going backwards it appears
Looking back at the tears
Haven't cried forever, but I guess in my heart I just never was
Bonded close to people
It's a part of me now - can't seem to
Let go, wow
Bad memories
Sort of replaced
By this place that strengthened my faith
I won't wait to regain what I lost on the way:
Self-esteem and conversations with girls
Daydreaming, thinking of the person I were
Can't hate my former self
I hurt and I learned
He made me who I am, now the past will be burned
Like it or not
This is the person that I am now
Son of the God
Evocative burdens
I will hand out
Man wow!
Better put your hands down
I'm not doing this to make anybody stand proud!
[Chorus]
Manipulating me to give up
Never take their words to heart
World is filled with lies
I find truth when looking at the skies
Choose a side or die
Who could write these rhymes?
I don't believe in the concept advising eye for eye
But why don't I
Let go of my old life?
I'm about to try
I hate the man I was inside
I will never give up and the best part about it is
When I feel like quitting I'll remember why I started it!
[Verse 2]
Why
Do people change with time?
Is it a part of life?
Prioritize right
Disorganized kind
I'm on the right side
But in a left life
Guess I just might
Lose my mind
In a useless fight
What's the reason I'm battling?
My past I'm abandoning
To fit a cornerstone
I like to call it truth
But why did you
Like to bite my wounds?
I care less now that I've said bye to you
I might have turned to
Someone who loves truth
It's hard to fight in a battle
If your sight is demonized
By the meanest lies
But I've seen the light!
And I will never forget that night
Conversation where I tried
To explain - and right:
My past - didn't take me anywhere
But back to the fact that I've had it there!
[Chorus]
Manipulating me to give up
Never take their words to heart
World is filled with lies
I find truth when looking at the skies
Choose a side or die
Who could write these rhymes?
I don't believe in the concept advising eye for eye
But why don't I
Let go of my old life?
I'm about to try
I hate the man I was inside
I will never give up and the best part about it is
When I feel like quitting I'll remember why I started it!
[Outro]
For now, I'll just try to reach the goal in my mind
Maybe I won't ever find the answers in time
None of that matters
I find peace in the Lord
You can try and stop me
Attacking the master
Jesus my hope
There's a reason I don't
Say whatever comes to my head
Yeah, I won't!
Don't wish to be dead
You listening yet?
I don't know
Nobody is killing my soul
